Do you ever wish you had been nice to your Aunty and bought her that Ninja for Christmas from QVC, Stratobuddy? It's the revenge of the mythical Aunts. Be afraid, be very afraid.

That's one of the main delights of the reviews. If only we could trust that all the negative ones got published.....

But you are forgetting the social faux pas of answering your doorbell to find the postman/milkman on the doorstep, and you are not wearing the latest matching bits and pieces of your capsule night wardrobe.

NO! It's back! If anyone remembers reading my thread of a few weeks ago, they will recall that I started out by being miffed that QVC keep rejecting my one star review. Then I found 29 others. And by the time I sent it back for a refund, which they took 3 weeks to process, it had been taken...

As I have been set off on a Barbara Cartland nostalgia trip by a recent thread, I thought that you might like to hear her comment on people like us. As everyone knows, you can have a scraggy face and great figure, or be relatively wrinkle-free and have a big bottom. "After a certain age, a...

Good Lord! If he was capable of keeping a woman's attention long enough to get her in the family way, I must have dined with him on a bad day.

Stop trying to put us off them, Greg. Your name has outed you as a family member of the chain of pie shops selling rival products to the QVC offerings.

I don't understand the presumed longevity of these bars for a year. Most people who watch QVC are lonely, bitter old women with nothing better to do, aren't I? And a chocfest is the only sure cure for depression, desertion and the evil betrayals of men. I imagine an evening with the hamper...

The dog was quiet, but Miss Cartland spoke non-stop to our male camera crew about the sexual staying power benefits of vitamins, with a lot of impertinent questions about their presumed lack of libido due to eating white bread.

Look, if you are going to walk a mile in her shoes you will need to broadcast the fact to your millions of devoted followers on twattergrambookface. And book a camera crew to record you putting one foot in front of the other for a whole mile. FOR CHARITY. If you are very, very lucky, you could...

Can anyone tell me why there is a detailed description of every ingredient which goes into chocolate bars, but not of chemicals in beauty products?

I"ll raise you Miss Cartland, as I was involved in filming her, and have a book inscribed to me with the motto "stay young" in her handwriting. With pop stars I only once had a meal with Jess Conrad, a man so boring that I nearly slid under the table, so you get top trumps for that. I could...

I have seen many items on that auction website which are being sold for charity. Every single item has been donated anonymously. Who wants everyone to know that they are the charitable giver? Or does DF think the doggies will get more money if some besotted fan can literally stand in her...

Hopefully only the one from your downstairs cloakroom.

If Eric in a dress flashes you, call the police.

I am not sure if anyone else is getting this, but when I log on to this forum I am getting purely American adverts. Just now in this thread there appeared an advert for a machine which is called an electric shoe steriliser. As America sets the trends and QVC follows, I wonder how long before...

Renee has a line of patter I have not heard since song lyrics were written by singers high on LSD. "I am the magic wand and you are the blackboard" Lucy in the sky with diamonds, and pass the spliffs.

Yes, but you know Tesco is very fashion-forward. You could go 'from desk to dinner' with a few tins of beans, some veg, and a box of washing powder. I can hear Glenn now "dress it up, dress it down with a little white cauliflower"

I flicked over from the news this morning, and sat, riveted, by today's 'fashion' offerings from Renee. I was instantly transported back over 60 years to the school room, where we all learned poetry by repeating aloud as a class: By the shores of Gitchee Gumee By the shining Big-Sea-Water At...

How kind you are. And how good to find oneself among like-minded people letting off steam about our various grouses in an entertaining way. Thanks, everyone.
